Update Hobby finally arrived today (thanks Topps for cheaping out on shipping) Jokes on you!

Bonds Silver Pack Auto /10. I opened the silver pack last. Last pack last card magic!

What could have been has been discussed ad nauseam. But what was can never be taken from us. Today, a special card from my favorite player showed up. I look forward to watching highlights of fish man with my son someday, talking about his greatness and eventually, sharing my collection with him.

Last year I got absolutely smoked with A&G but wanted to give it another shot this year.

0/10 would recommend. Pulling a Yoshi World Series pose mini sp out of a tony Gwynn is a hate crime.

Wanted to share progress...of my custom card.

I received my McGwire Big Stick pro model I plan on adding this week.

I have an 80s era jersey on the way also to fill in the relic patch area.

Also to show the actual size of the card.

One thought you may have is about the letters behind the helmet... Well these are 1/4" thick birchwood cut letters and I tried to cut them to give the feel of the helmet in front... It looked terrible.

Oh, and I will add gold foil stickers for a 1/1 !

Medium is a plastic acrylic base, acrylic paint, some paint markers, a little pastel chalk. Hand painted and drawn.

2026 Topps Update Baseball - Cam Schlittler (RC - Rookie Debut) #US78 - True Photo Variation SSP - New York Yankees

Gotta admit these look pretty sharp overall! Reminds me of the On Demand or Black & White releases.

Got this maybe 5 or 6 years ago. Around project 2020 time. I work on the road so I had to set my alarm and pull over on the highway lmao . Couldn't believe somehow bots didnt scoop it up. And cool that its the 5/5. They had other numbered versions, but i thought if I have 1 chance ill shoot for the /5 . If I went for the 1/1 and I didnt get it by the time I went back this would have been gone. Took a long time to get it. Maybe a year. But it was worth the wait. I will also include a photo of my other pulled griffeys. And my fav pulled rickey henderson 1 of 1. From prime cuts. I wish it had ink but ill take it. And glad it had the multi colored sick patch being a 1 of 1. Sorry the quality isint the greatest on henderson. Its in storage and its what I had in my gallery. Hope you enjoy the view!

Before the program’s inception, the memorabilia world was rocked by Operation Bullpen, an FBI and IRS investigation that began in the 1990s and estimated that up to 90 percent of all sports memorabilia at the time was fake. The investigation resulted in 63 charges and convictions, the dismantling of 18 forgery rings and the seizure of more than $4.9 million, according to the FBI. With that level of doubt created among fans, MLB and other organizations began to work on revamping their approaches to authenticating memorabilia beyond the then-standard certificates of authenticity — pieces of paper that accompanied memorabilia items and suddenly were viewed as worthless.

For MLB Authentication Program director Michael Posner, its creation was the moment the league decided to “put a stake in the ground” for the sake of baseball history. MLB Authentication’s core mission is the protection of all teams, players and fans by eliminating the ambiguity that leads to distrust.

And with the 2026 World Series being played by two teams that have never won it before — the first time that’s happened since 1980 — the MLB Authentication Program is especially relevant. Regardless of which club wins, a slew of historic artifacts will need to be cataloged and preserved, and even more fakes will need to be separated from the real deal. That’s where the program comes in.

THIS CARD IS SOLD! 2019 Topps Museum Collection Shohei Ohtani 1/1 sketch card Signed by me, Phil Hassewer.Thanks for looking and all the support you guys give artists! These opportunities are all but disappearing from future Topps sets.

Still trying to figure out these holiday boxes.

Made over 150 packs of cards for the kids in our neighborhood. Each pack is 15 cards with stars, inserts, refractors, chromes, and recent base cards. Last year the neighborhood kids made return trips to get more packs. I’ll be ready for them!

After about 10 numbered Andrew Painter cards from 5 different sets lol

Hey all! My roommate and I are looking to let go of this slab. We pulled this back around release and it finally came back from grading. Honestly not super sure what it’s worth, it’s a Pop 1. We were looking to get $3k but are open to offers. Run an eBay store with 438 items sold and 100% positive feedback (kckicksny). Thanks!

Trying to get top dollar—should I go with Goldin, Fanatics, a consignor (never used one, recs welcome), or just go straight to eBay myself?

What’s the move for a card like this?

Hit Pages /5 and Corbin /50 in first pack, then Mr. Freeland /5 made an appearance in the last pack.

Aloha all. Pulled a Hideo Nomo red prizm refractor, not numbered. From my research, it seems to be a retail exclusive, sometimes called an unofficial 1 of 1, even a ‘ghost card.’ Has anyone actually seen one surface, or have any confirmed sales? Topps will not give me a print run for this card. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

PCA-MVP!

I think I did pretty good what do you think?
